Daniel in the 'Nun's Priest's Tale'
- Published
- American Notes and Queries 18 (1979): 18-19.
- Description
- Chauntecleer's citation of Daniel (NPT 7.3128-29), frequently taken to refer to Daniel 7, more pertinently refers to Daniel 4 where Nebuchadnezzar relates a dream similar to Chauntecleer's and to the dreams Chauntecleer cites. This dream and its aftermath show a fall from greatness and then a reversal like that in NPT.
